In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, and green onions (if using). Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of a tortilla and place it butter-side-down on the skillet.
Spoon approximately 1/4 of the chicken mixture onto one half of the tortilla. Spread it out evenly, leaving a small border along the edges.
Fold the tortilla in half, pressing down lightly with a spatula to flatten it slightly.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden and the cheese is melted.
Remove the cooked quesadilla from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining tortillas and filling.
Cut each quesadilla into wedges and serve warm. Optionally, add extra ranch dressing for dipping.
